Goodison's atmosphere.

[CallumGamble]

Lately, admittedly, we have been unbelievably gash.
It could be said that the players performance impacts the fans 'performance'. But it works both ways, yesterday it was 10 minutes before the boo boys piped up because because of a couple of misplaced passes. If we actually supported the team for 90 minutes, without getting on their backs instantly, and actually made noise, then other teams would feel intimidated like they used to. We were outsung by Blackburn, yesterday, bloody Blackburn, who couldn't fill half their allocation. Look at the atmosphere at places like Wolves and QPR, there was 10 times the atmosphere than we've had in the past year.
So come on, get behind the blues, through thick and thin, and make Goodison loud again.

I am all for totally suppoprting the lads. But you gotta remember, people are giving up their weekends and paying expensive ticket prices, they expect to get and deserve something in return.

 

[Walken]

If you wanna sing fine, do it, if other people dont then thats their choice.

When that ginger ballbag starts getting it right on the pitch the atmosphere will follow.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

I was there yesterday and I have to agree. Whether we had been gash or not, the "boo boys" were getting on my nerves. A bit of passion is alright, of course, but shrilling "[Poor language removed] this" and "[Poor language removed] that" at the top of your lungs every two seconds is just a complete waste of breath, surely?

 

[Mvflusk]

Agree with the above. I can't articulate it in to words properly but it's really annoying me how people are so negative. Don't bother spending your money if you will only support the team when they're playing well. Nobody forces us to support Everton. It's not condoning poor performances or questionable management, it's just letting the club know you'll always support them.

A lot have lost their way.

 

[Desaparecido]

Players and manager are obscenely remunerated for their employment.

Part of that comes from the money one spends on one's ticket.

Sometimes that may have been hundreds of pounds paid in advance for a season ticket.

The burden is upon them to perform well and entertain, not on the paying audience to encourage them.

Wholly understandable that when they consistently perform badly, parts of the crowd suspect them of not trying to their full capability, and/or persistent incompetence, undeserving of 'support' unswerving.

i never open me mouth during the 90 mins ,but seem to spend the 1st 2 hours in the boozer moaning about how bad we have just been .dont agree with booing the team or players . just wish there was more passion and effort put in by the team, its not a lot to ask for. ginger ballbag nice one walken ha ha

I think, in all honesty, that everyone's just too bored to sing.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

I could understand perhaps more bitterness coming from the season ticket holders, they cost a fortune these days, but they've gotta ask themselves is it really worth the aggro? It supports the club and shows loyalty, fair enough, but why burst a few blood vessels screaming at the players every time they dont do something "right"?

Maybe it's just me?

Because I've spend hundreds of pounds, which I can't afford, on a season ticket and I spend hundreds on top of that going round the country to places like Sunderland and Swansea.

So when I see someone lazily strolling round the pitch or misplacing a 5 yard pass which I could play with ease, I really don't feel like singing about how boss we are.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Case and point, spotted a guy in the lower gwladys on the front row running over to the wall and going absolutely off his head at the players when Blackburn had a corner. This was in the second half. If anything this is just going to distract them.. so again, why do people bother??

You dont have to sing, just dont act like a nobhead.

 

[Frank Drebin]

If anyone wants to start a chant describing how I might as well have flushed my season ticket money down the toilet then I will happily join in.

 

[Azzurri]

I know it wasn't meant as a direct insult at me, but you're the one acting like a knobhead.

We're 14th in the table and playing the most boring football in the world, with it being highly likely one of our biggest players is being sold soon without a replacement.

If I want to moan, I'll moan. However, I usually just sit there not saying a word and wishing I'd stayed at home.
